DEF: Bears, $2,500
This might be a good week to splurge on a better defense (they never cost that much anyways), but if you've already filled out the perfect lineup in your skill positions and can only spend the bare minimum on your defensive unit, the Bears are a high-risk, high-reward play as they head to New Orleans to play the Saints.
TE: Tyler Kroft, $3,000
Tyler Kroft has three touchdowns in the past three weeks, having proven himself a reliable red zone target for the Bengals. If you expect Cincinnati to run over the Colts this Sunday, Kroft is a good pick to find the end zone again.
WR: Marquise Goodwin, $3,900
On the other side of the Eagles-Niners matchup, Marquise Goodwin emerges as a fun player to throw a flyer on if you need to fill out your receivers at a bargain price. His stats have been trending upward all year and the Eagles might not have a defensive player who can match his speed in the open field.
WR: Mohamed Sanu, $4,900
In last week's loss to the Patriots, Mohamed Sanu had his best game of the season so far and was the Falcons best receiver not named Julio Jones. With Atlanta's offense still trying to find its rhythm, Sanu is an option Matt Ryan will likely be looking to keep involved in the gameplan.
WR: Nelson Agholor, $5,500
Nelson Agholor has been a pick in this column a few times and this week is another good spot for the Eagles slot man. Philadelphia is at home facing the lowly 49ers and will be looking to pour on the points. With Jason Peters going down, quick looks to the slot might be in order.
RB: Tarik Cohen, $4,600
While the Bears offense has failed to inspire fear in the hearts of opposing defenses, Tarik Cohen is one player who has the ability to be a game-changer on the field. Bad offensive stretches like the Bears are currently going through don't last forever, and when the curse breaks it's likely Cohen will be the catalyst.
RB: Joe Mixon, $4,700
With the Bengals expected to roll on the Colts this week, Joe Mixon emerges as a solid play in the backfield. He's been running stronger in recent weeks and will be facing an Indianapolis defense that's been allowing 125 yards per game.
QB: Josh McCown, $5,600
Despite proving a capable quarterback game after game, Josh McCown is still getting no respect from whatever algorithm sets the prices at DraftKings. At home against the Falcons this week, he'll have plenty of chances to pad the stat sheet.
